Gig: inclusive football fundraiser in Leeds!

Next Friday I’ll be popping down to Leeds to play this amazing gig in The Attic with wormboys.

You can buy tickets here.

Friday 16 January 2026. We can kick it - a fundraiser for trans-inclusive football in Leeds. Live music, performances, DJ sets from Fig By Four, Faded Alchemy, Sophie and the Silhouettes, wormboys, Lick Quid Gold DJs, Shariz DJ, Ballz Deep, Plasma Anderson, Sunflower Thieves. Unwaged £5, face £10, solidarity £15. 7pm until late at The Attic, Leeds.

In the wake of the Football Association effectively banning trans women from playing even at an amateur level, it’s been heartening to see a lot of serious community organising happening around inclusive football. A lot of this has been led by women who have already been frustrated for years with the institutional sexism of the FA, and their effective control over many local pitches.

This gig will be raising money for those fighting back against a corporate, exclusionary approach to football, and working to build something much better in its place.

Plus, it’s a stonking line-up. If you’re local, come and see us all play!

wormboys gigs: Greenbelt Festival + fundraiser in Leeds

We have a couple of very exciting events coming up for wormboys in a couple of weeks!

First, on Wednesday 20th August we will be playing a fundraiser gig at Hyde Park Book Club in Leeds. Themed around the film I Saw The TV Glow (which promises to be…weird) the event has been organised in support of The Hangout, a super awesome LGBTQIA youth project. We’ll be sharing a stage with oli reeves and Leeds Queers Against Fascism.

The TV is Still Glowing – Get your tickets here!
£8 waged / £4 unwaged + fees.

Event poster for The TV is Still Glowing, featuring an old TV and calm moon face against a blue and pink background. Text reads as follows: a fundraiser for LGBTQ youth club the Hangout. Inspired by I Saw The TV Glow. Wednesday 20th August, 7:30pm. Featuring wormboys, oli reeves and queers against fascism. Tickets £4 unwaged or £8 standard. Hyde Park Book Club.


Secondly, for the weekend of 22-24 August we will be whizzing down to the countryside near Kettering for Greenbelt Festival! This will be my second time performing at Greenbelt, as I gave a talk about trans feminism in 2023. The whole event had thoroughly excellent vibes, especially the Rebel Rouser stage in the woods. I’m excited to be returning there with wormboys this time around for a full set of live music – including lots of material written for our forthcoming debut album. I can’t wait for us to share it!

Greenbelt Festival – Get your tickets here!
Adult tickets £110 – £300: pay what you can.

Poster for Greenbelt festival, featuring many many artists and speakers. Key text reads as follows. Greenbelt: hope in the making. 21-24 August 2025 Boughton House. A festival of artistry, activism, and belief.
